This week at Avalon we closed out our Beatitudes series with a challenging message: Blessed Insults. Jesus reminds us that persecution is not a sign of failure, but a mark of faithfulness. From the slander faced by the early church to the pressures we face today, following Christ will cost us something — but it’s worth everything. In this message Pastor K.Paul explores what it means to live as ‘activated Christians,’ why the world won’t always like us, and why we must always choose Christ over Caesar.
